My finger- pressing, interrogating lower fleshy lip,
pushing pressuring for answer, though of the mouth, one lip alone can/'/t give.

My brown round eyes- sightless to mundane touchable things;
gazing, fixed on ideas in birth flowing in vitro on conceptual seas-
this sight beyond vision brings me, without blink, in my mind, to my knees.

My ears- unwanted shipwrecks crash up my canals; misery, joy, truth, lies.
Oh scoundrels! You cartilage agents in flappy disguise,
you raw data passers of the world to my mind.

I/'/m composed of stretchy pokable breakable parts-
vital, yes; engineered, and redundantly so
though nonetheless pawns, backbenchers all-
support staff in service to the Big Show.

Cerebrally wired to toil and toll, unceasing streaming of
unfiltered data my brain collates precisely, this way or that;
an endless demand to crunch sensory input,
my brain (as my finger) aught but a tool- thus my mind/'/s mindless goal
obeys without question commands from my soul.

Swells life music to in on over us all- so precious the baton you wield and hold.
